The world fell silent as the system suddenly went into a deep hushed state.
Chaochao then noticed that her dad was wiping her eyes.
A cool, damp wipe gently brushed across her eyes and eyelashes, and the little girl couldn't help but squint. She suddenly felt a little itchy.
Just like the wind blowing on the bow of the ship just now made her nose itch.
"You won't feel bad about losing the fish?"
The man's deep, gentle voice rang out. Seeing that he had wiped her down enough, Huo Qin withdrew his hand from the wet wipe and lowered his eyelids to look at her.
His gaze was indifferent, yet it seemed he wouldn't miss a single emotion on the child's face.
System: "Yes, yes, yes."
This was exactly the question the system wanted to ask but didn't have a chance to ask.
As the cool, comfortable sensation on her eyelids faded, Chaochao, who had been immersed in it, was still in a dazed state, as if she had just woken up from a deep dream.
After Huo Qin finished speaking...
Chaochao stood there for a full second before slowly opening her slightly narrowed eyes, as if she had finished loading.
You won't feel reluctant to part with it?
One...two...are there two...?
Xiaoqi said that a double negative means an affirmation... so that means...
Is Daddy asking her if she'll be sad?
Her small face was wiped clean and shiny, vividly revealing three parts confusion, three parts bewilderment, and four parts bewilderment.
The crisp, tender baby voice was upright and dignified.
"I was just playing with it. It went home, but there are still many other fish."
As Chaochao squatted down to pick up the all-natural fishing rod, she tilted her head slightly in confusion towards her father, her tone quite natural and relaxed, seemingly not understanding why everyone thought she would be heartbroken.
After he finished speaking, the room fell silent.
Huo Qin's eyelids twitched slightly: "..."
The system was shocked: "..."
Even the wild fish that stumbled in the lake stopped shedding Daiyu's tears.
The system seemed to have lost its composure, clutching its head in a helpless state.
No, no, no... baby, what kind of playboy talk is this?! ...Although there seemed to be some signs of that before... but! But!
The system suddenly calmed down.
After the earthquake, a faint sense of relief, as if it had just happened, inexplicably arose in its heart.
Seeing that her father remained silent, the little girl, who was waiting for a response, had a "Isn't that right?" expression on her face.
"..." Huo Qin's slightly furrowed brows relaxed, and he actually nodded along with her without changing his expression, giving a firm "hmm".
In just three seconds, President Huo had figured it out.
The Huo family is wealthy enough to support them.
Chaochao had no idea how much of a shock her casual remark had brought to her dad and friends, nor did she understand the complex thoughts that were swirling in their minds. Anyway, she had figured it out!
Chaochao picked up her fishing rod again, stood on tiptoe, and tried her best to raise her short arm, finally managing to pat Huoqin on the shoulder.
She patted her several times as if to comfort her.
"It's okay, even if one fish is gone, there are still thousands and thousands of other fish."
Daddy must have been upset just now, but he was too embarrassed to say it.
The little dumpling, thinking he had discovered the truth, lowered his eyebrows and stared at Huo Qin with his bright, round eyes, trying to appear profound.
She casually tossed one hand aside, tossed it with a flourish without even turning her head, and then placed her free hand on Huo Qin's shoulder, acting like an adult with tender affection.
"Daddy, wait here, I'll catch it for you right away."
Huo Qin looked at her, his lips moved, and finally he said, "...Mm."
With a knowing smile, Chaochao finally turned around with full confidence.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, Huo Qin quickly reached out and silently threw the "fishhook" that was hanging on the boat railing into the lake.
I think there was a cool breeze just now.
Chaochao turned around in confusion.
Huo Qin, who was already standing up straight, noticed her gaze and glanced back at her with a slight downward look.
The little dumpling understood again, and gave her father a doting smile.
"Daddy, don't worry."
Huo Qin: "..."
He gently closed his eyes.
Honestly, that's gone too far.
Chaochao racked her brains for film and television resources, intending to say something more comforting, but suddenly turned her head away—
"Ooh!"
With almost no effort, a slender grass carp was pulled onto the boat deck.
Only half a minute had passed since the hook was cast.
The strange light in Huo Qin's eyes flickered for a moment, then returned to normal.
"Daddy, look! Here it comes."
Chaochao pointed at the fish thrashing about on the boat deck, her almond-shaped eyes crinkling with laughter, and squatted down, ready to catch the fish with her bare hands.
But Huo Qin beat him to it, his well-defined fingers curling up to easily grasp the fish's body and tossing it into the bucket where the previous fish had swum.
Chaochao, whose job had been taken away, paused for three seconds.
Then turn around, cast the line even more vigorously, and lift the rod!
She knew then that her father was getting anxious.
She needs to work even harder!!
Article 3!
Article 4!
Article 5!
The answer is no gap period.
The system made an awkward guess.
The news that there was a living bodhisattva on the boat feeding the animals has probably already spread throughout the lake... right?
The radiant children distributing grain were doing "radio calisthenics" in front.
Later, Huo Qin started questioning his existence while picking up fish.
His calm and composed expression cracked slightly.
When he inadvertently glanced at the spot where the thin willow branch had fallen into the water, and saw a swarm of red, black, and white fish raising their heads, swaying and leaping as they scrambled to bite at the empty willow tip, "..."
He has become able to look away as if he doesn't see it.
The system was initially a little uneasy, but seeing that Huo Qin seemed to accept it well and had no intention of killing the fish as if they were monsters, it breathed a sigh of relief.
